Abstract
Description
[0001] The present invention relates to a power-split continuously variable transmission with two driving ranges. The transmission can be configured for use in a machine. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a drive train for a machine with such a power-split continuously variable transmission, and to a machine with such a drive train.
[0002] Power-split continuously variable transmissions (CVTs), such as hydrostatic-mechanical CVTs, are frequently used in machinery. These transmissions allow for stepless adjustment of the gear ratio with relatively high efficiency, but they have a comparatively narrow gear ratio spread. The gear ratio spread of a transmission is the ratio between the highest and lowest gear ratios. It is known to incorporate several operating ranges in a CVT, each with a different gear ratio range, to increase the gear ratio spread.
[0003] The present invention relates to a power-split continuously variable transmission. In a continuously variable transmission, the gear ratio is infinitely variable. The transmission can be designed for use in a machine, for example, a construction or agricultural machine. The power split can be, for example, a hydrostatic-mechanical and / or an electromechanical power split. The transmission comprises an input, to which the quantity to be converted is fed into the transmission. The transmission also comprises an output, to which the quantity converted by the transmission is discharged. Furthermore, the transmission comprises a variator with a first and a second energy converter, which can be coupled to each other and operatively connected. The variator can be a hydraulic and / or electric variator.The variator is designed to allow stepless variation of the transmission's gear ratio. Furthermore, the transmission has a first and a second shifting device. A shifting device can be a clutch. The shifting devices can be designed as positive-locking devices, such as dog clutches and / or synchronizers, and / or as friction-locking devices, such as multi-plate clutches.
[0004] The transmission has a first and a second planetary gear set. The transmission can only have a first and second planetary gear set, and therefore no further planetary gear sets. In one embodiment, the transmission can have only two planetary gear sets in the power flow between the input to the second planetary gear set and the output. Each of the planetary gear sets can be a negative planetary gear set, in which the stationary gear ratio, which describes the speed ratio of the sun gear and ring gear when the carrier is fixed, is negative. Likewise, one or both planetary gear sets can be a positive planetary gear set, in which the stationary gear ratio is positive. It is conceivable that the first planetary gear set is a negative or a positive planetary gear set and the second planetary gear set is a negative planetary gear set.
[0005] Each planetary gear set has three elements. The first element of each planetary gear set is a sun gear. The second element is a planet carrier in the case of a negative planetary gear set and a ring gear in the case of a positive planetary gear set. The third element is a ring gear in the case of a negative planetary gear set and a planet carrier in the case of a positive planetary gear set. The planet carrier is also known as a planet carrier or carrier. In the case of a negative planetary gear set, the planet carrier can support at least one, but more specifically several, for example, three, planet gears, each of which meshes with both the sun gear and the ring gear. In the case of a positive planetary gear set, the planet carrier can support at least one, but more specifically several, for example, three, pairs of planet gears.One of the planet gears of each pair can mesh with the sun gear and the other with the ring gear, with the two planet gears also being able to mesh with each other.
[0006] If two elements are mechanically connected, they are coupled directly or indirectly in such a way that a movement of one element causes a reaction in the other. Further elements, such as one or more gear stages, may be provided between the elements. A permanently non-rotatable connection between two elements is understood to be a connection in which the two elements are rigidly coupled to each other in all intended states of the transmission. The elements may be individual components rigidly connected to each other or even as a single piece. In a permanently non-rotatable connection between two elements, the elements are directly and immediately connected to each other, without any further functional groups, such as transmission stages, being provided between them. Only a connecting element to establish the rigid coupling between the elements may be provided.
[0007] If, however, a switching element is provided between two components of the transmission, these components are not permanently and rotationally fixed to each other, but can be connected to each other via the switching element. A rotationally fixed coupling is only achieved by actuating the intermediate switching element. Actuating the switching element means that it is brought into a closed state, so that the rotational movements of the components directly coupled to the switching element are synchronized. If the switching element in question is designed as a positive-locking switching element, the components directly and rotationally fixed to each other via this element will rotate at the same speed. In the case of a friction-locking switching element, speed differences between the components can exist even after it has been actuated.This desired or unintended state can nevertheless be described as a rotationally fixed connection of the respective components.
[0008] The second element of the second planetary gear set is permanently and rotationally fixed to the third element of the first planetary gear set and mechanically operatively connected to the drive. Furthermore, the first energy converter is mechanically operatively connected to the first element of the first planetary gear set, and the second energy converter is mechanically operatively connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set. The second element of the first planetary gear set can be rotationally fixed to the output via the first switching device in order to provide a first transmission range with a first gear ratio range.
[0009] Furthermore, the first element of the first planetary gear set is connected to the first element of the second planetary gear set via a first connection, and the third element of the second planetary gear set is connected to the output via a second connection. One of the first and second connections can be switched via the second switching device to establish a rotationally fixed connection, thus providing a second gear range with a second transmission ratio. The other of the first and second connections is designed as a permanently rotationally fixed connection. The first and second transmission ratios can differ in order to increase the gear ratio spread. Thus, either the first element of the first planetary gear set can be rotationally fixed to the first element of the second planetary gear set via the second switching device, or the third element of the second planetary gear set can be rotationally fixed to the output via the second switching device.
[0010] The present invention provides a power-split continuously variable transmission with two driving ranges and thus a relatively large gear ratio spread. The transmission has a simple, compact, and cost-effective design because it comprises only two planetary gear sets and only two switching devices. Furthermore, the transmission results in low component and variator loads and exhibits good efficiency.
[0011] In one embodiment, the second element of the first planetary gear set and the output shaft are permanently and rotationally fixed to the first switching device. Furthermore, the first element of the first planetary gear set and the first element of the second planetary gear set can be permanently and rotationally fixed to the second switching device. Alternatively, the third element of the second planetary gear set and the output shaft can be permanently and rotationally fixed to the second switching device.
[0012] The variator's energy converters can be designed as electric machines. Each electric machine can include power electronics. Furthermore, it is conceivable that the electric machines provide electrical power to a consumer, and that electrical power can therefore be drawn from the transmission via the variator. In one embodiment, the electric machines can each be operated as a motor and a generator. It is also conceivable that one of the machines can be operated only as a motor and the other only as a generator. Alternatively or additionally, the energy converters can be designed as hydrostatic drives.
[0013] One or both of the energy converters can be mechanically connected to the first planetary gear set via a pre-reduction stage. This pre-reduction stage can be a spur gear and / or a planetary gear stage. If the energy converters are electric machines, the pre-reduction stage makes it possible, for example, to use smaller electric machines.
[0014] At least one of the energy converters can be designed coaxially with the drive. A coaxial design of the energy converter to the drive means that the rotational axis of the energy converter coincides with the rotational axis of the drive. This allows for a particularly compact and rotationally symmetrical gearbox. This design also enables the energy converter to be connected to the gearbox with fewer components. This results in low complexity and reduced susceptibility to failure.
[0015] Furthermore, it is possible for at least one of the energy converters to be designed axially parallel to the drive. In this configuration, the axis of rotation of the energy converter does not coincide with that of the drive, but is arranged parallel to it. This embodiment has the advantage that the design of the energy converter, for example its size, can be selected independently of the design of the rest of the gearbox. If both energy converters are axially parallel, they can be provided on opposite sides of the gearbox. In an axially parallel configuration, the energy converter can be mechanically connected to the planetary gear set via one or more spur gear stages.
[0016] The transmission can also include a reversing gear. By providing the reversing gear, the first and second transmission ranges can be made available in both forward and reverse directions. The reversing gear can be located on the output side, where it can be mechanically coupled to the transmission output or permanently fixed against rotation. In this case, the reversing gear can be located in the power flow downstream of the transmission output. Likewise, the reversing gear can be located on the input side and in the power flow upstream of the transmission input. For example, the reversing gear can be permanently fixed against rotation to the second element of the second planetary gear set. The reversing gear can include a negative planetary gear set, a positive planetary gear set, and / or a spur gear stage.
[0017] The first and second planetary gear sets can each be designed as negative planetary gear sets. This results in a simple and particularly compact gearbox design. Furthermore, the first and second planetary gear sets can have identical geometric dimensions. For example, the sun gears, planet gears, and ring gears of both planetary gear sets can have identical diameters. This also contributes to a simple and compact gearbox design. The gearbox can also include a power take-off (PTO) shaft, which can be permanently and rotationally fixed to the drive. The PTO shaft can also be referred to as a secondary drive. Drive power can be supplied via the PTO shaft to auxiliary equipment, such as a mower, a forage wagon, or other implements.
[0018] Furthermore, the present invention relates to a drive train for a working machine with a power-split continuously variable transmission according to one of the previously described embodiments. The invention also relates to a working machine with such a drive train. The working machine can be an agricultural machine or a construction machine. For example, the working machine is an agricultural tractor or a wheel loader. Fig. Figure 1 shows a schematic view of a gearbox according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
